Hi. There's an old sound card from the late 90s called the Digital Audio Labs CardD/CardD+. Anyone know if it will work with Linux?

What I've found on Google:
Dead link to a page that (maybe???) had a driver for it: https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-h.../msg03016.html

A homebrew driver for Kernel 2. Maybe it will still work? http://www.sjdjweis.com/linux/cardd/

Anyone know some more info? Thanks

It definitely once had a driver, although not sure if it was open source or proprietary driver. Given that this was EXCEEDINGLY old hardware at this point, DAL never even released specs on it because it was high end when it was new, and Linux in general was NOWHERE near as popular then as it is now (even though it's still not insanely popular on the desktop), my gut feeling is that it's not. However, the only way to find out for sure if you have one of these cards is to try.

DAL still has download links for legacy OS's (NT4/Win2K/XP) for this card (surprising), so you might could shoot them a quick email asking if they ever released linux drivers. Worst that would happen is they say no, or ignore you completely.

Actually, I'd be curious to hear what they have to say.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. Kinda forgot I posted here. DAL answered me, this is what they said:

Hi...

If nothing else, it's pretty cool they gave you an answer.

Regards...
